Other business activities


Outside business activity is any business or activity undertaken by an advisor that is outside the scope of their relationship with their firm (e.g., consulting services, real estate, freelance work, teaching, etc.). Investors should stay informed about these activities to ensure no conflicts of interest.
Stephanie Lin is an independent licensed insurance agent. Additionally, Stephanie Lin is a principal of American Vision Capital, LLC (a separate entity from AVA) that offers Consulting Services (strategy, marketing, organization, operations, technology, and mergers & acquisitions) and Real Estate and Development Services (owning and managing office and industrial properties, medical office buildings and multi-family communities). From time to time, she will offer clients advice or products from those activities. Clients should be aware that these services pay a commission or other compensation and involve a conflict of interest, as commissionable products conflict with the fiduciary duties of a registered investment adviser. American Vision Advisors LLC always acts in the best interest of the client; including the sale of commissionable products to advisory clients. Clients are in no way required to implement the plan through any representative of American Vision Advisors LLC in such individual's capacity as an insurance agent.
